Curriculum
Following two semesters of prerequisite general education and science courses, students are eligible to apply to the College of Nursing. Building on a strong science foundation, the college prepares students with theoretical knowledge and clinical nursing practice in areas such as medical, surgical, pediatrics, obstetrics, mental health and community health.
The curriculum prepares nurses to care for people with illnesses and injuries, while focusing on wellness, health promotion and disease prevention.
The culminating experience for student nurses is a clinical internship. Student nurses select a clinical area of interest and are mentored by expert nurse preceptors. This experience effectively prepares graduates to enter the workplace.
